Lip Plumper lip gloss – the ultimate trick for fuller lips

A lip plumper is a beauty product that is usually available in the form of a gloss or serum. This product achieves immediate effects on the lips without resorting to fillers, surgical procedures or injections. The lip plumper can last for several hours and gives the lips impressive volume. A major advantage: application can be repeated throughout the day without any problems, as the effect can wear off after around 4 hours.

Ein Lip Plump Gloss enthält wirkungsvolle Inhaltsstoffe wie Chili-Extrakt oder Pfefferminzöl, um die Durchblutung zu fördern. Diese Inhaltsstoffe sorgen einerseits für eine sanfte Reizung der Haut, was zu einer verstärkten Durchblutung führt und somit die Lippen auf natürliche Weise anschwellen lässt. Andererseits enthalten viele Lip Plumper auch feuchtigkeitsspendende Substanzen wie Hyaluronsäure oder Kollagen, die die Haut glätten und straffen.

The two most popular lip plumpers are from Maybelline and NYX. We tested both products for you and found out the advantages of each.

The Lifter Plump lip gloss from Maybelline New York gives your lips instant volume and reduces lip lines by an impressive 48%. It conjures up the effect of plumped-up lips and also offers a glossy finish look without the need for lip filler.

The XL applicator coats the lips with intense colour from the very first application. The innovative formula creates a pleasant warmth to enhance the lips without drying them out. 

What makes it special: The lip gloss is long-lasting and stays in perfect shape for up to 4 hours.

The NYX Duck Plump Lip Lacquer with its collagen peptide formula with ginger oil immediately provides fuller and more voluminous lips. The plumping effect increases over time as the collagen peptides further stimulate blood flow after application. Experience a natural and long-lasting volume boost with every application with this lip lacquer.

The high coverage of NYX Duck Plump guarantees an instant plumping effect from the first application. This unique formula was developed with vegan standards in mind and allows for easy application both in front of the mirror and at the next party. 

The Lip Lacquer impresses with a light gel substance that not only moisturises the lips but also guarantees a perfectly opaque finish. They also have intense coverage. 

In contrast, the lip gloss gives your lips a radiant shine. This not only visually adds volume, but also provides rich moisture. The colours tend to be lighter and less opaque.

To summarise: Both products offer intensive moisturising care for your lips, but the lip lacquer focuses more on opaque colours, while the lip gloss scores with its brilliant shine. 

Of course, you can combine the lip plumper with other beauty products. You can create an extra effect with a lip liner to make your lips look even fuller. Which lip liner should you use? It doesn't matter, there are no limits to your creativity.

Here is some inspiration for you: (combination plumper & lip liner)

I am delighted with the effect of a lip plumper. It pampers the lips with moisture and gives them a voluminous appearance. In particular, the Lifter Plump lip gloss from Maybelline New York made my lips look plumper and bigger thanks to the 2% chilli extract it contains. The formula of this gloss is truly remarkable.

For those with sensitive lips, I recommend the NYX Duck Plump Lip Lacquer. As the formula contains ginger oil rather than chilli, it not only plumps the lips but also nourishes them.

Both lip plumpers were easy to apply and gave a beautiful lip result. Which lip plumper is your favourite?

Not convinced by the lip plumpers? Then we have collected tips on how you can give your lips more fullness without filler treatments:

1. lip massage:

A gentle massage with your fingertips or a toothbrush stimulates blood circulation and makes the lips look plumper.

2. lip liner:

With a lip liner in a nude shade or a shade that matches your lip colour, you can accentuate the lip contours and make your lips look fuller.

3. highlighter:

A small dab of highlighter on the cupid's bow (the curve of the upper lip) emphasises the centre of the lips and makes them appear fuller.

4. skincare lipsticks:

Use high-quality lipsticks with nourishing ingredients that won't dry out your lips.

5. lip contouring:

Use a bronzer or a powder in a darker tone to lightly shade the contours of your lips to create more depth.

6. lip scrub:

A gentle lip scrub removes dead skin cells and ensures a smooth surface to which the colour can adhere better.

7. lip serum:

Special lip serums with hyaluronic acid or other moisturising ingredients can plump up the lips from the inside and make them appear plumper.
